As Dorothy once said from the advice of the Good Witch Glinda in The Wizard of Oz, "There's no place like home."

LeBron James has chosen to make his return to northeast Ohio and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The news comes after James spent four years with the Miami Heat. With the Heat, James & Co. won two NBA championships and made the Finals four times.

"Before anyone ever cared where I would play basketball, I was a kid from northeast Ohio. It's where I walked. It's where I ran. It's where I cried. It's where I bled. It holds a special place in my heart. People there have seen me grow up. I sometimes feel like I'm their son. Their passion can be overwhelming. But it drives me. I want to give them hope when I can, I want to inspire them when I can," said James in a Sports Illustrated story about his return.

Cambridge area residents have given their input and reaction following the news of James' return to Cleveland;

"I think it'll be real exciting, but I wonder how the Cleveland fans are going to take it. I think they [the fans] are anxious to see him come back," said Rick Spencer.

"I think it's a great thing because I think he owes the fans of Cleveland something after he left," said Stacy VanDyne.

"It's great! Ohio deserves a championship," said Jason Brown.

"I'm real excited that he's coming back. I'm glad he's not a traitor and I think other people will be happy about it," said Lexy Baker.

"I was so happy, I was ecstatic when Lebron was coming back, I went crazy when I found out about it, I think they're [the Cavs] going to win the NBA Finals this year ... honestly," said Justin Figel.

"Well, for me, when he left I was kind of in the minority of "everyone hated him for leaving." I felt like he did his time there, he's a free agent and had every right to leave. So coming back I'm extremely excited because I didn't have the negative vibes that everyone else had. I think it's going to be interesting to see what all these Cleveland fans have to say after hating on him for however long, now he coming back. It's going to be interesting if they [the fans] flip flop and say 'oh I've always liked him, I was just kind of mad.' [Coming back] gives him a better chance to win, and to see how he fits back in with the team since they can play better now. As long as they both have some chemistry there I think they'll be championship contenders," said Jeston Froehlich.

"It's unreal! It's good for Cleveland! I'm speechless, I can't believe he came back! It's going to be exciting," said Jack Ridenour.

Throughout the day Friday, social media site Twitter was trending topics ranging from '#BackToCleveland,' 'Cavs,' Sports Illustrated' and 'LeBron James.' All of this in national reaction to James' return to his first NBA team.

According to an Associated Press story, "He's already 27th all-time in scoring with 23,170 points, and could climb into the top 20 next season. Since he entered the league as the No. 1 overall pick by the Cavaliers in 2003, no one has logged more minutes, scored more points or had a better plus-minus ratio than James. His teams have outscored opponents by a staggering 3,743 points with him on the floor over that span; for comparison's sake, Dwight Howard is No. 2 on that list, with a plus-2,312 ratio" [...] "I'm ready to accept the challenge, I'm coming home," said James.
